No, This is my nightmare, this is my nightmare.” When “O’Donnell asks the DC crowd if they think Snowden is a traitor, he gets the same Trickle applause, “Oh,, I don’t want to be here”. Then, O’Donnell ask the DC crowd, “Round of applause if you didn’t applaud because you’re maneuvering from political positions and you’re not sure who’s around and you don’t want to reveal how you feel about the situation.” Then the crowd starts applauding wildly. “Yeah, Yeah”.

Lee Camp opened his part of the show by saying that he’s going to get into some “issues the country is having” and “for the first 45 minutes of the show we’re just pair off and hug and cry. We’re just going to be huggn and crying,, so just get into 2 lines”, motioning a line with his arm. Lee then went on to say, “In Trumps’ America I feel freer. I could come up here, and my whole show, I could, literally, drop my pants and take a dump on the stage and that wouldn’t be the craziest thing you saw this week”.Camp joked about Betsy DeVos saying,, “She’s gutting public schools, by the way, she has never stepped foot in a public school in her life before she took over the public schools. That’s par for the course under the Trump Presidency. He’s got the guy who hates the EPA in charge of the EPA and he’s got the head of Exxon Mobile in charge of the State Department, the guy who hates the energy dept in charge of energy. He’s got the brain surgeon in charge of housing and urban development But the beauty of that is that it has taken the facade off of our system”. Cheering and clapping,, “you can see clearly now,, “In late stage capitalism the Corporations take control of the state, it’s been happening but, until now you didn’t point and go, “That’s the CEO of Exxon Mobile. Trump is literally a brand name”.

“It amazes me that we’re OK with our current voting system and our current election system”,, moaning and booing from audience,, “OK, I mean, the people in this room aren’t OK with it”. Then, cheering and clapping,, “But, I got bad news for ya, there’s a couple of people outside”.. “A lot of places they have computers, it’s proprietary code, you can’t see what’s going on, you cannot check whether or not you’re getting a legitimate result, it is a complete black box voting system and we seem fine with it”. “Now Imagine,, it’s the last 10 minutes of the super bowl where they just sent the crowds home, they pulled the curtain, they turned off the cameras, and 10 minutes later a Ref comes out and says, Ay, Cowboys won. It would be like an angry Marty Gras! It would be the end of the world!”. Loud laughter coming from the audience and clapping.“We have more money than you can ever fuckn imagine alright. Like, money is nothing to us. Donald Trump just gave Saudi Arabia $460 billion in weapons over the next 10 years which is enough to end world hunger for 15 years. OK? We have way too much money and I love when they say we don’t have enough money to build up our infrastructure, bridges and shit. We have 66 thousand structurally damaged bridges in this country, we don’t have the money to fix em, Really? but, you have the money for the largest surveillance infrastructure ever created, ever to watch every one of our citizens. Then when we say I actually know where we can get the money, Tax the Rich and make Corporations pay their fair share of taxes, as opposed to Google paying like 4% because they’re like ‘based in Ireland’.Every time we say that they say, ‘That’s class war’, No we’ve been in the middle of a class war for the past 40 years perpetrated by the top .1% sucking the wealth and the resources for a tiny number of individuals.”
